Hmm, I've seen ones that say "an error has occured, because an error has
occurred."  I think that was on a Mac.

Somewhere I have a screen grab of a useless pop-up error message on
Linux.  There's a box with an alert icon and an okay button.  But
there's no clue as to what program generated the error, nor what the
error is.  The only text it has is the okay button.

 important to the thread.)

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.
I read messages from the public lists.
